Whenever I share in a Blog or on Facebook a need and desire to trust God, I can almost hear, “that’s all well and good but in the real world…” or, “that’s a pretty picture but that’s not reality.” How do you share the reality that we can trust God in all things? There are…

This morning in our Friday Morning Prayer Group, we were reminded of this passage in The Message (MSG) translation: Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with…

Yesterday was a day of learning. I love those days when what I am learning from God goes deep. Concern for one of our adult kids and grandkids started building and turning into worry that left me feeling overwhelmed and helpless. Does worry for your kids do that to you? They are capable adults and…

In talking with people I love and care about I’ve listened to gently spoken doubts about God….I’m not sure I believe….how could Jesus be human if God can’t sin?…Also, in relation to the world we live in now the inability to listen to people…I don’t watch the news…I can’t believe anything they say… I think…

I was reading this morning in Jesus Calling and this Scripture from Proverbs 4:11,12 gave comfort. I will instruct you in the way of wisdom and lead you along straight paths. When you walk, your steps will not be hampered; when you run, you will not stumble. From Hearing God: For the Lord gives wisdom,…

In taking God’s hand and walking with Him I am learning ever so gently to trust Him in all things. His calm love is my anchor. Psalm 139: You have searched me, Lord and you know me. Do you know anyone who knows you so intimately that there is nothing to hide, nothing to fear,…

Yesterday at Church, our Pastor talked about Pentecost – 50 days after the Resurrection of Jesus. In ancient Israel it was the Festival of Harvest. Pentecost was when the Holy Spirit came upon the disciples…a spiritual harvest. When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like a…

I was reading 1 Peter 1 this morning. All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fail, but the word of the Lord endures forever. 1 Peter 24-25 (Isaiah 40:6-8). As I was reading the introduction to 1 Peter I couldn’t…
